>>37534818>They're meant to be cute, because that's what the anime industry values. Correct. Why they come across as sexy is they have a cute face put on a mature body that isn't associated with that face. Like a 16 year old's face on a 26 year old's body.
It's the opposite for women. While a man's face is important, it isn't as important as how fit he is or his height. That's why in anime when you see demihumans, the girl basically looks human but has accessories like wings or a tail, while the boy has a monster face.
